	Robert Aske - LoveToKnow 1911
		Subsequently Aske, followed by 30,000 or 40,000 men, proceeded towards Doncaster, where lay the duke of Norfolk with the royal forces, which, inferior in numbers, would probably have been overwhelmed had not Aske persuaded his followers to accept the king's pardon, and the promise of a parliament at York and to disband.

		Aske was a real leader, who gained the affection and confidence of his followers; and his sudden rise to greatness and his choice by the people point to abilities that have not been recorded.

		Thomas Wright, the first chaplain, was master of Bunhill School (Finsbury) and consequently unable to teach Aske's boys; therefore in 1697 John Pridie was appointed chaplain and was to teach English, the catechism, and the rudiments of grammar, at a salary of £40 with house and board.
